Red Pesto Pasta Salad with Lavender, Prosciutto, and Mozzarella

Red pesto pasta salad with mozzarella cubes, black olives, sun-dried tomatoes, and fresh arugula, served in a rustic bowl with lavender in the background.

This red pesto pasta salad with prosciutto and mozzarella is a vibrant Mediterranean-style dish built around sun-dried tomato pesto, fresh herbs, and a very subtle touch of lavender. Used sparingly, the lavender doesn’t make the salad taste floral; instead, it adds a soft herbal aroma that blends naturally with the savoury elements, enhancing the overall flavour without overpowering it.
